Well it's certainly a comfort to me that some sectors of the economy are largely immune to the inflationary pressure brought by deficit spending.

Not sure how that's possible, but there it is.

How come we aren't blaming the Iraq war for inflation?

Come to think of it, how come we didn't have inflation during the Iraq war? That shit was expensive.

There was a fuckin surge and everything.

Was there inflation during world war two?

Actually, no. There wasn't because we had price controls.

Carry on.

Grocers are finally lowering prices as consumers pull back

Consumers have been grumbling about the soaring cost of groceries for nearly two years. Now, some of the biggest names in retail appear to be listening.

In recent weeks, Target and Aldi have broadcast price cuts on thousands of items, while Walmart unveiled a new private label lineup of quality “chef-inspired food” mostly in the $5-and-under range. The shift comes as U.S. consumers have been signaling their discontent with more subdued spending — threatening retailers’ bottom lines.
Or as I like to put it...
Inflation occurs when corporations raise prices.

....and we didn't even have to cut social security.
